Israel demands 1,000 workers, the department prepares to open ads

Kathmandu: Israel has demanded one thousand Nepali workers.

According to the Department of Foreign Employment, there is a demand for one thousand Nepali skilled workers as caregivers in Israel. Director-General of the Department, Krishna Prasad Dawadi, informed that the advertisement will be opened within a week and a half if the situation is normal as there is a demand for one thousand caregivers from Israel as per the agreement reached between Israel and the Government of Nepal.

He clarified that final approval has been sought from Israel to advertise as per the demand and it will be advertised as soon as the approval is received. "As Nepal is at high risk of corona infection, it is difficult to allow the advertisement to be opened immediately," he said.

A labor agreement was signed between Nepal and the Israeli government on September 29, 2008, on the issue of sending Nepali workers to Israel.
